passing data from a child window to different textboxes of its parent

[backups2007]

What I want to do is be able to open a popup window that may pass data to different rows of textboxes of its parent window.

I want to pass data to different rows of textboxes and each row has a different set of values. How can I do it? Through a function? Through conditional statements? Through creating one popup window for each row of textboxes?

I really need an answer ASAP. thanks.

Parent page Scripting.

var ref = window.open(....); //this is the child window
.
.
 

Child page Scripting.

opener.document.forms["form_name"].elements["element_name"].value = document.forms["form_name"].elements["element_name"].value
//you are assigning here child value to parent value.
 

Enjoy the code.

I meant passing different sets of values for different rows of textboxes.

say for example, I want to pass item_code, description, and price to textbox set 1. and a different item_code, description, and price to the next row of textbox. How should it be done?

Post your code you tried so far.

Could you kindly tell me how I can use a much simpler code than having to do this:

if(self.opener.document.form1.item_code1.value==""){
self.opener.document.form1.item_code1.value=document.form1.item_code.options.[document.form1.item_code.selectedIndex].value;
self.opener.document.form1.description1.value=document.form1.description.options.[document.form1.item_code.selectedIndex].value;
}
else
{
if(self.opener.document.form1.item_code1.value!="" && self.opener.document.from1.item_code2.value==""){
self.opener.document.form1.item_code2.value=document.form1.item_code.options.[document.form1.item_code.selectedIndex].value;
self.opener.document.form1.description2.value=document.form1.description.options.[document.form1.item_code.selectedIndex].value;
}
}
